April 30 - May 3, 2018

Vancouver Convention Center, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Overview

At the workshop track of ICLR 2018 we solicit the submission of 3-page abstracts. This year, the Workshop Track will focus and favor late-breaking developments, very novel ideas and position papers. Topics covered may include:

Unsupervised, semi-supervised, and supervised representation learning

Representation learning for planning and reinforcement learning

Metric learning and kernel learning

Sparse coding and dimensionality expansion

Hierarchical models

Optimization for representation learning

Learning representations of outputs or states

Implementation issues, parallelization, software platforms, hardware

Applications in vision, audio, speech, natural language processing, robotics, neuroscience, or any other field

Extended abstracts submitted to the Workshop Track are strictly limited to 3 pages, excluding references. These contributions are considered as workshop papers and can be published elsewhere, i.e., they are not subject to the dual submission policy restriction of our conference track papers. Selection of abstracts is performed via a light single-blinded review process.
Note that some of the conference submissions that are not accepted to the Conference Track but fit the novelty requirements of this call for abstract may also be invited to be presented under the Workshop Track.
